Maddie watched them attentively. Well, she watched Caitlyn, really.
Her face didn't bear any sign of strong emotion. No jealousy or longing, or even curiosity. Still, she stared. So Vi decided to give her a reason to.
Without missing a beat, Vi reached up and tucked a strand of hair behind Caitlyn's ear.
Caitlyn instinctively took a step back, stumbling and bumping against the lockers as Vi followed her.
"What are you doing?" Caitlyn asked, wary.
Vi's fingers lingered, leaving Caitlyn's ear to brush the curve of her jaw before dropping her hand, then gently taking Caitlyn's in hers and leaning in close enough to insinuate their interaction was something other than platonic.
"Blondie's watching," she said. "Gotta make it look convincing, remember?"
Caitlyn started to turn her head, but Vi lightly pinched her chin and guided it back to face her.
"Don't," Vi murmured. "She'll notice. Just keep your eyes on me. We're having a totally normal, intimate moment. So romantic. It's like the whole world around us has completely disappeared and it's just us two…lost in each other."
They were close now, maybe a little too close. Vi could feel the rapid rise of Caitlyn's chest against hers, she could see the flutter of her pulse on the side of her neck, the flush adorning her skin.
Easy to fluster, Vi thought. Good to know.
“We agreed—no kissing,” Caitlyn reminded her breathlessly, her voice wavering.
Vi smirked. “Who said anything about kissing, Cupcake? It's the near kiss that's way hotter, trust me."
A beat passed as they continued to stare at each other. Vi with all the charm she could muster, and Caitlyn, a blushing wreck.
Assuming enough time had passed, Vi stole a quick glance in Maddie's direction, only to find the spot empty. Just like that, she released Caitlyn's hand and took a step back, deciding not to comment on Caitlyn's audible exhale.
